Take out battlegrounds and add in some kind of repeat prevention so I'm not doing the same strike three times in a row.

    PSI Ops and Battlegrounds are good additions to the Vanguard (BG are fairly short and relatively new in comparisons to the stale old strikes) Heck, I’d even throw in Regular Dares & Wellspring to count for the Vanguard Rank Leave the Legend 250k Dares & Master Wellspring for the +2 pinnacles

  • I actually enjoy Battlegrounds being mixed in. I wish more seasonal activities could be mixed in. I love the idea of repeat protection. They need that for crucible and Gambit map selection too. It would help keep modes feel like they have even less content than they do.

  • To each their own. But I tend to avoid the strike list, as it is just boring as heck to me, and frankly I find the strikes just lacking character in D2. Repeating the same few over and over aren’t fun either.

  • Well don’t confuse this with me thinking Battlegrounds saved the Vanguard playlist all on their own. But they do help break up the repetition. More can definitely be done in that regard. Even strike specific loot doesn’t help as you get bored with the strike before you even got what you wanted.

  • Ehh. I tend to have more players back out more often on battlegrounds than even corrupted at this point, but that could be my experience only, as I stopped really running strikes for the most part. So whenever I do run them, this is kinda what I see. I’m indifferent on battlegrounds honestly. At least they have character. Strikes in this game though man, they just lack in a lot of ways, at least to me anyway. If I can’t remember the bosses name, it can’t be all that memorable.

  • If it’s not a bonus Vanguard Rep week I tend to just do my 3 strikes a week and I’m done. They’re just so boring because Ive done them so many times. So I get it. I reduced my playing during the Battleground season so I didn’t quite play them to death either. So as long as they don’t come up too often, they’re a welcome to see in the rotation. But more does need to be done to make the playlist more interesting. To spice it up.

  • Oh I agree. I just find it interesting just how they feel to me in D2. I actually booted up D1 the other day to see if I’m just stuck with the nostalgia goggles, and for some reason they still mostly feel better, aside from some of those strikes after Taken King. I didn’t mind spamming them. So maybe it’s length, or the fact that D1 strikes are shorter, and more simplistic in nature, or even a mixture of both, on top of the fact that D2 tends to basically have a few at a time on repeat. There’s just something that makes me enjoy the D1 list way more than the D2 ones. Been that way since D2 started for me. Just something. But we all do have our preferences. Maybe it’s just me liking the simplistic nature of them for a repeatable activity more in D1 because they didn’t take so long to run. Might explain why I like specific D2 strikes over the vast majority of them as well. Dunno, but it’s still something to this day I just cannot pinpoint. But yeah I think I only run the list now if I absolutely have to to try and get a leveled piece, and even then I just am like, ehh I kinda don’t want to run that.

    If it’s been long enough since you played D1 strikes it could also just be a nice change of pace. Like being able to happily rewatch a show after 10 years, but you’re bored with watching a newer show on repeat. But I can say by the time D2 was releasing I was DONE with those D1 strikes. lol

  • I agree. I like repeat protection but would prefer if Psi Ops and such got tossed in there after it’s designated season.
